That’s all that I could think of. I did leave an option for “Other”. Is ‘No KOs’ still a thing? :thinking:

For me, it’s the Only one disguise I find that I mess up on the most. I will reflexively change into another disguise that isn’t as restricted. Or I’ll change back into my suit for the silly idea of leaving with your suit. Or I try to move disguises… Where you change a disguise, move away a little, and change again because the prompt can still be reached.

Next, would be headshot kills only.

Actually it did. It was one of things I reported that really had made straight up hate showdowns. When there’s so many suspects and I clearly know it isn’t one of them, after making them not a suspect, they return to being blue if I get away from them. So then when you keep looking for suspects in blue, you end up seeing the same ones you already unmarked.

This is why I hate showdowns. I find that it’s better since after the patch tho so I’m thinking you got a residual bug.

It’s not so much “forget” as it is “intentionally ignore” though.

Voted “Other”.

For me, it’s the persistent timer ones (Hide & Seek, Get Disguises, Silent Takedowns, etc.) Because I don’t pay enough attention to them. Too focused on playing and then I wonder why the music is getting so tense! FAIL! And then I’m like “oh yeah.” :joy:

Aren’t showdown targets supposed to have the exact 4 clues and nothing additional? For the first time I saw a target with 5 different clues instead of 4.

The 4 clues were these.

But he also has a tattoo on his hands. (The earrings are unfortunately not visible on this screenshot, they were on the other ear.)

I actually had unmarked this guy because I saw the tattoos and then came back and realized what’s happening.

No. I don’t know who spread this but it’s not true at all. They can have additional visual things, a tattoo has been the most common in my experience.

The only disqualifying criteria are tells and meeting (stuff on the left side of your camera) - if someone does anything that is a mismatch, you can unmark them.

Damn, that’s weird. I’m level 100 and legit seeing this the first time.

Every time I go to Haven, I bring along a keycard hacker and some sedative poison in case I get a Target in the lab. They’re hardly ever in the lab.

The ONE time I don’t bring that stuff along, the target is in the lab.

Just my luck.

For me it’s mostly perfect shooter, but “Doors stay locked” has tripped me up a whole lot of times.

I had a surprise today. I threw a non-lethal melee which caused a target to fall in the water and it counted for the Melee Weapon Kill objective!

Congratulations!

How much extra Merces/XP do you get after Prestiging 10 times?

Fascinating. I wonder if that’s across the board or if particular conditions have to be met.

Honestly, I always wanted to use a similar method on the Bad Boy ET. When you blow up his car and he goes to take a piss over the cliff, I always wanted to throw a hammer (the client’s nickname) at the back of his head and have him fall off the cliff as a result, but it’s so complicated to get right I’d keep running out of patience and just kick him off.

It caps out at level 5. So 500+450+350+300=1600 extra merces per prestige objective.

Actually it ends up being a total of an additional 2,000 Merces on top of the standard amounts.
